The Libyan-Tunisian Exhibition for the Development of Industry and Trade was inaugurated in Misrata on Monday under the slogan (Tunisia, Libya, a Gateway to Africa).

The Misrata Chamber of Commerce and Industry said the first edition of the exhibition will run from January 16 to 18 and aims to highlight the unique characteristics of Misrata, as the city represents a crossing point towards sub-Saharan Africa.

The organizers hope the event will encourage Tunisian investors to operate within the Free Zone of Misrata and open new markets in the African region.

The exhibition featuring more than 200 companies, would facilitate rapprochement, communication, and partnerships between Libyan and Tunisian entrepreneurs, to enhance trade exchange between the two countries, the Chamber said.
